In his bimonthly podcast, Dr Henry, the JCSO Editor-in-Chief, discusses a round-up by JCSO Editor Dr Howard Burris of the top takeaways from this year’s annual ASCO meeting, as well as a series of articles focusing on CAR T-cell therapies. He also looks at reports on psychosocial factors and treatment satisfaction after radical prostatectomy; the impact of inpatient rehabilitation on outcomes for patients with cancer; and the long-term effects of posttreatment exercise on pain in young women with breast cancer. Patient-specific cases of carcinoma of the colon in a child, managing severe radiation dermatitis after head and neck radiotherapy, striking rash in a patient on a checkpoint inhibitor, and a small gastric GIST with high mitotic index are also included. Dr Henry rounds off his comments with an examination of the challenges presented by tumor heterogeneity in the war on cancer.
